Chinese New Year

Ms I Ding —

Happy Year of the Ox!

Happy Chinese New Year, everyone! 

2021 is the Year of the Metal Ox, the second animal in the 12-year zodiac rotation. The sign also includes those born in 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, and 2009. 'Ox' people are believed to be conscientious, reliable, strong, and trustworthy. They are purportedly also very opinionated and stubborn, and dislike failing or being challenged. 

2021 Chinese New Year Day is on Friday, 12th February. We want to invite you and your  family to come to the Dunedin Chinese Garden this Friday to celebrate the Year of the Ox with us! See you there.
